Underneath The Stars
One summer nightWe ran away for a whileLaughing, we hurried beneath the skyTo an obscure place to hideThat no one could find
And we drifted to another state of mindAnd imagined I was yours and you were mineAs we lay upon the grass there in the darkUnderneath the starsYoung loveUnderneath the stars
Weak in the kneesWrapped in the warm gentle breezeSo shyA bundle of butterfliesFlushed with the heat of desireOn a natural high
As we drifted to another place in timeAnd the feeling was so heady and sublimeAs I lost my heart to you there in the darkUnderneath the starsYoung love
Beautiful and bittersweetlyYou were fading into meAnd I was gently fading into youBut the time went sailing byReluctantly we said good-byeAnd left our secret place so far behindAnd I lay in bed all night and I wasDrifting drifting drifting drifting
And I was yoursAnd you were my ownMy own babyAs we layAs we...Lay underneath the stars
